Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Keel Infrastructure Corp. has changed its external auditor following its move from Canada to the United States. The company’s audit committee approved PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (United States) as the new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, replacing PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (Canada).

The change is described as a consequence of Keel’s redomiciliation and not the result of any audit concerns. PwC Canada’s reports on the company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 contained no adverse opinions, disclaimers, or qualifications, and the company reports no disagreements or reportable events with PwC Canada during those periods or the subsequent interim period through June 11, 2026.

independent registered public accounting firm financial
"approved PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (United States) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm"
An independent registered public accounting firm is an outside accounting company officially registered with the government regulator to examine and report on a public company's financial records and controls. Investors treat its reports like an impartial inspector’s certificate — they add credibility to financial statements, help spot errors or misleading claims, and reduce the risk that shareholders are relying on unchecked or biased numbers.
redomiciliation financial
"dismiss PwC Canada was recommended and approved ... due to the Company’s redomiciliation from Canada to the United States"
Redomiciliation is when a company legally changes its country of incorporation while keeping the same business and assets, like moving a house to a new neighborhood but keeping the same furniture. Investors care because the company then follows a different set of laws and tax rules, which can change shareholder rights, reporting standards, dividend treatment and the ease of trading the stock, potentially affecting risk and return.
disagreement regulatory
"no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions)"
reportable event regulatory
"no “reportable events” of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K"
Regulation S-K regulatory
"as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions"
A set of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that tell public companies which narrative and qualitative details must be disclosed in filings, such as risk factors, management discussion, executive pay, legal proceedings and business description. Think of it as a standardized checklist or blueprint that ensures investors get the same types of background information from every company so they can compare risks, management quality and strategy before making investment decisions.

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

 

Approval of the New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

On June 11, 2026, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of Keel Infrastructure Corp. (the “Company”) approved PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (United States) (“PwC USA”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through June 11, 2026 , neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with PwC USA regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by PwC USA that PwC USA concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

 

Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

On June 11, 2026, in connection with the engagement of PwC USA, the Audit Committee approved the dismissal of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (Canada) (“PwC Canada”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss PwC Canada was recommended and approved by the Audit Committee due to the Company’s redomiciliation from Canada to the United States.

 

The audit reports of PwC Canada on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and the subsequent interim period through June 11, 2026, there were (i) no “disagreements” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Company and PwC Canada on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC Canada, would have caused PwC Canada to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such periods; and (ii) no “reportable events” of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

The Company provided PwC Canada with a copy of the above disclosures contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to the time this Current Report on Form 8-K was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and requested that PwC Canada furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made by the Company herein, and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.
